So I'm 3 weeksinto my new dreads, and I'm really excited about them.
I did TnR and I'm almost at 7 months now. They came out almost completely within the first couple months, I tried re-twisting at first and did some damage. I let them go completely and now I have all I can do to stop them from dreading together or "congoing"
Really, the time flies once you forget about them and let them be, you stop noticing any frizz and start seeing and feeling them really dread and it gets exciting. Letting go may be the hardest part, but the most rewarding. I'm well on my way to having crazy beautiful dreads and think you will be too. They do what they dojust let them do it and separate if they start to tangle together. Best wishes to you!
stop using aloe! aloe conditions u only want to use ali=oe for a rare ocassion like a weeddding, or when mature and dijued out
use sea salt instead
and do not "redo" them do not backcomb or palm roll just leave them alone
spray with sea salt and let them dread
if u keep using aloe they wkll keeo falling out
I think I remember reading somewhere on this site that lemon juice is actually conditioning so it might not be such a great idea.
